- Holy Martyrs Marcian and Martyrius (346)
- Both lived in Constantinople and were disciples of the Patriarch St
Paul the Confessor (November 6), murdered in exile by the Arians. During
the reign of the Arian Emperor Constantius, They fearlessly confessed
that the Son of God is of one essence with the Father and is truly God.
For their confession they were beheaded by the Arians and buried outside
the city. Soon afterward, miracles began to be wrought at their tomb;
and St John Chrysostom later built a church over it.
